Delta vs SCARA vs Articulated Robots

Mar 07, 2024

Engineer - General Industries & Automotive

Finding the right robot for high-speed picking applications is crucial. This video from TechTransfer compares parallel link (Delta), serial link (articulated), and SCARA link robots to help you select the best model. We'll dive into the FANUC LR Mate, SCARA, and Delta series, detailing their work envelopes, accelerations, payloads, and environmental ratings. Real-world application videos, including the DR-3iB/6 STAINLESS, LR Mate 200iD/7LC, and SR-6iA/C, demonstrate their capabilities. The video also highlights the importance of using simulation software like iRPickTool and iRPickPro to validate your system design and ensure it meets throughput requirements.
